FROM: Laura Carstens, Planning Services Manager
SUBJECT: Amendment of Historic Millwork District PUD Conceptual Plan
DATE: June 11, 2013
INTRODUCTION
This memorandum transmits City staffs recommended amendment to the Planned Unit
Development (PUD) Conceptual Plan for the Historic Millwork District, in response to
property owners' need for off - street parking to facilitate redevelopment. Supporting
documentation is enclosed.
BACKGROUND
The City of Dubuque broke new ground in creating a mixed -use PUD zoning district that
retains active industrial uses in the Historic Millwork District while simultaneously
promoting the adaptive reuse of its historic warehouses with residential, retail, office and
commercial uses. The Historic Millwork District Master Plan forms the basis for the
PUD Conceptual Plan and PUD ordinance. The Unified Development Code (UDC) site
design standards and Downtown Design Guidelines apply to development in the
Historic Millwork District PUD.
Within the PUD boundary, there are a number of large historic warehouse complexes
that consume all or most of a block, leaving little to no room for on -site parking. The
PUD Conceptual Plan anticipated the need for on- street parking, parking ramps, and
surface parking.
On- street parking has been provided in the District with the 2012 Complete Streets
project. The City has installed a temporary surface lot along 10th and Elm Streets, and
plans to construct a parking ramp adjacent to this lot along 9th Street between
Washington and Elm Streets.
The PUD ordinance requires City Council approval of surface parking. Parking lots must
conform to the Unified Development Code (UDC) site design standards and Downtown
Design Guidelines.
Memo to Zoning Advisory Commission
Amendment to Historic Millwork District PUD Conceptual Plan
DISCUSSION
In the downtown, off- street parking in the forms of ramps and surface lots and on- street
parking is provided by the City of Dubuque to facilitate development and adaptive reuse
of downtown buildings. Municipal parking also reduces pressure to demolition for private
parking spaces.
To address the need of Historic Millwork District property owners for off - street parking to
foster reuse and redevelopment, the City of Dubuque analyzed creation of surface and
ramp parking in the Downtown and in the District. City staff identified the City -owned
property area along the Elm Street "S" curve between 11th and 12th Streets and west of
the railroad tracks as short -term priority.
The PUD Conceptual Plan depicts the west side of this area as a "blank slate "; i.e., no
specific uses are shown. Currently, this site is a vacant, undeveloped gravel site used
for equipment storage.
The PUD Conceptual Plan depicts the east side of this area for redevelopment with new
multifamily residential and off- street parking to serve the use. Currently, this site is a cul-
de -sac used for vehicle parking. Access for the adjacent business would be maintained
with installation of a municipal parking lot.
RECOMMENDATION
City staff recommends approval of the proposed amendment of the Historic Millwork
District PUD Conceptual Plan to create off- street parking in the subject area, in
response to property owners' need for off - street parking to facilitate redevelopment.
REQUESTED ACTION
The requested action is for the Zoning Advisory Commission to review and discuss the
proposed amendment of the PUD Conceptual Plan, and then make a recommendation
to the City Council.

PLANNING SERVICES DEPARTMENT
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
1 currently represent Stackis, L.L.C., who owns property located at what is commonly
known as 1146 Elm Street, Dubuque, Iowa 52001 and legally described as follows:
The northerly 177.6 feet of the easterly 100 feet of the westerly 220
feet of Out Lot 500, EXCEPT that part conveyed to the City of
Dubuque, Iowa, Warranty Deed, Instrument No, 2600 -86; in the
City of Dubuque, Iowa, according to the United Stales
Commissioners' Plat of the Survey of the Town of Dubuque, Iowa,
records of Dubuque County, lowa,
1 further represent S and K Packaging, lnc., who leases the property from Stackis, L.L.C.
My clients are in receipt of the Notice of Public Hearing issued regarding the above -
referenced matter and have had an opportunity to review such as well as consult with City staff.
Upon consultation with City staff, a diagram of the location of the proposed parking spaces was
obtained. A copy of that diagram is attached hereto and by this reference herein incorporated.
On the face of the diagram, we have circled in highlighter two parking spaces which will have an

CLEMENS, WALTERS, CONLON & MEYER, L.L.P.

Page 2
immediate impact on my clients' use of the adjacent property. My clients' building has been
labeled on the diagram as S and K. As you will see by reviewing the diagram which
superimposes the proposed placement of parking spaces, the two parking spaces which are
objectionable to my client are located immediately adjacent to my clients' building and impede
my clients' ability to place a dumpster adjacent to the building and allow the dumpster to be
serviced by refuse disposal vehicles. The installation of those two parking spaces will prevent
access by refuse disposal vehicles to the area immediately adjacent to the building.
As you can see, my clients' purchase and development of this property preceded
notification of any plans of the City to develop parking facilities immediately adjacent to such.
My clients' purchase and development of the property relied on my clients' unfettered access to
the adjacent alleyway for ingress and egress of vehicles to the building. In the event such
alleyway is impeded as proposed, it would have a direct and immediate impact on my clients' use
of his facility and could have a significant long -term economic impact on my clients' ability to
use such property.
My clients ask that the City consider elimination of the two parking spaces adjacent to my
clients' property. In the alternative, my clients ask that the two parking spaces be relocated
adjacent to the other 16 parking spaces contemplated in that general vicinity and in such a
manner so as to ensure that my clients have access to my clients' building and the adjacent
dumpster.
If you should have any questions with regard to this request and /or are willing to consider
an on -site visit to the property to better understand the direct and immediate implications of this
proposal on my clients' use of the property, you should feel free to contact either myself at the
contact information identified above, or my client, Shawn Stackis, at 5 and Packaging, Inv -at
582 -8895. We appreciate your consideration of this matter.
